A review by kccrewdson
The Painted Queen by Elizabeth Peters, Joan Hess

adventurous mysterious fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? No

3.0

Unfortunately, Elizabeth Peters was unable to finish this book and it suffered for it. By far the weakest book in the series, both in character and plot.
